chronic lithium treatment increased intracellular s100ß levels in rat primary neuronal culture.
s100ß a neurotrophic factor mainly released by astrocytes, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of bipolar disorder. thus, lithium may exert its neuroprotective effects to some extent through s100ß. furthermore, the possible effects of lithium on astrocytes as well as on interactions between neurons and astrocytes as a part of its mechanisms of actions are unknown. this study was undertaken...
متن کاملCadmium Induces Transcription Independently of Intracellular Calcium Mobilization
BACKGROUND Exposure to cadmium is associated with human pathologies and altered gene expression. The molecular mechanisms by which cadmium affects transcription remain unclear. It has been proposed that cadmium activates transcription by altering intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) and disrupting calcium-mediated intracellular signaling processes. This hypothesis is based on sever...
متن کاملKetamine effect on intracellular and mitochondrial calcium mobilization
The suppressive effects of ketamine on intracellular calcium has been reported in a variety of cells although the mechanisms involved are not well understood. The aim of this work was to evaluate the ketamine effect on the mitochondrial Ca2+ accumulation and the cellular Ca2+ mobilization using FLUO4-AM and flow cytometry. The results showed that mitochondria from ketamine injected animals pres...
متن کاملStereospecificity of sphingosine-induced intracellular calcium mobilization and cellular proliferation.
Sphingosine is a positive regulator of cell growth in Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts (Zhang, H., Buckley, N. E., Gibson, K., and Spiegel, S. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 76-81). The present study investigated the stereospecificity of sphingosine-induced cell proliferation and its mitogenic signal transduction mechanisms. D-(+)-erythro Stereoisomers (cis and trans) stimulated DNA synthesis, whereas neither...
متن کاملMobilization of calcium from intracellular stores facilitates somatodendritic dopamine release.
Somatodendritic dopamine (DA) release in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) shows a limited dependence on extracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](o)), suggesting the involvement of intracellular Ca(2+) stores. Here, using immunocytochemistry we demonstrate the presence of the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase 2 (SERCA2) that sequesters cytosolic Ca(2+) into the endopl...
